Forecast: Spending Leap for North American Alternative FuelsUSAgNet - 02/12/2018

Researched by Industrial Info Resources "Spending on Alternative Fuels" projects in North America will rise 8.58% this year, from 2017, according to Industrial Info's 2018 Global Industrial Outlook. Trey Hamblet, Industrial Info's vice president of research for
the Chemical Industry, said there is increased interest in developing biofuel capacity from waste products.

"There is an increasing number of new grassroot plants being pursued that plan to convert MSW (municipal solid waste) and biomass waste to biofuels and ethanol," Hamblet said. "These biofuels will be targeted for sale to traditional refiners to be blended with
transportation fuels. These projects can be large, complex and expensive."
